EteSync is a secure and end-to-end encrypted synchronization service for keeping your personal data synchronized across devices. Etebase is the desktop client/server implementation of EteSync. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install Etebase (EteSync) on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before starting with the installation process, you need to have the following:
Follow the steps below to install Etebase (EteSync) on Fedora CoreOS Latest:
Before we begin, it's always a good idea to update the system packages to their latest versions. To do so, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo dnf update -y
Go to https://github.com/etesync/server/releases and download the latest version of the Etebase server for your platform.
Extract the downloaded archive by running the following command:
tar -xf etebase-server-linux-amd64.tar.gz
Move the extracted folder to the /usr/local directory by running:
sudo mv etebase-server-linux-amd64 /usr/local/
Change ownership of the folder to the root user by running:
sudo chown -R root:root /usr/local/etebase-server-linux-amd64
Now, let's start the Etebase server. Run the following command to move to the location of the server binary:
cd /usr/local/etebase-server-linux-amd64
Next, start the Etebase server by running:
sudo ./etebase-server-linux-amd64 run
If the server starts without any errors, you should see a message similar to the following:
INFO[0000] etebase-server is starting up, listening on 0.0.0.0:8000...
Note: If you want to stop the server, press Ctrl+C.
Once the server is running, you can connect to it using a web browser. Open your browser and navigate to http://<server-ip>:8000 where <server-ip> is the IP address of your server.
You should see the Etebase server login page, as shown below:
Enter your login credentials and click on the Log In button to access the Etebase dashboard.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and started the Etebase (EteSync) server on Fedora CoreOS Latest. You can now start using EteSync to keep your personal data synchronized across all your devices.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
